Payson, AZ – Popular Internet
Radio Show Slamdog Nation announced today it is returning to the airwaves, to commercial
station 1100 KFNX-AM in Payson Arizona.

Slamdog Founders Patrick Schumacher
and Derik Lattig says 1100 KFNX-AM provides a much better ‘fit’ for their brand
of comedy and news topics.

Schumacher says He is excited
to be on board with 1100 KFNX-AM.

“KFNX is a professional
operation, day in day out meat and potatoes station, not an internet wannabe
like where we were before.”

Slamdog Nation severed ties
with Fishbowl Radio Network this past spring due to quality control issues.

Schumacher says it was a
difficult decision to leave.

“We liked the group on a
personal level, but professionally they could never reach the bar we’ve set for
Slamdog Nation to go worldwide.”

Lattig says three months of on-air
difficulty proved in the end to be just too much ‘hassle’.

“We have a talented crew with
over 90 years combined broadcast experience, and it’s difficult for that to
shine through when music levels blast over our talent and interviews week after
week. We want to be as professional as possible in our sound and despite weekly
meetings with the Fishbowl staff and owner, problems continued.”

The move teams Slamdog Nation with
a cavalcade of radio giants like Don Imus, Michael Savage, Laura Ingraham and
Lars Larson, all household names.

“We hope Slamdog Nation will
soon become synonymous with these shows and allow our listeners a chance to heard” said Lattig.

The Slamdog Nation thanks its
faithful listeners and guests for their loyalty during its move to greener
pastures.
